Ease of Use:  

We found Advanced System Optimizer intuitive for even beginners. The program is divided into categories, using icons and brief option descriptions for ease of navigation, as seen in the screen shot above.

Ease of Setup:  

We had no problems during Advanced System Optimizer installation.

Maintenance/Diagnostics:  

Advanced System Optimizer offers comprehensive maintenance and diagnostics tools to keep your system in top condition. The program comes with an Add and Remove Uninstaller, and the ability to manage startup programs.

Advanced System Optimizer also allows you to conveniently clean up Internet activities and develop a block programs list, which can prevent a specific program from ever running again. This is handy for blocking annoying, reoccurring spyware programs.

Every Windows operating system has a section that gives information about the computer and its operating system, but Advanced System Optimizer goes a step beyond with its System Information and Files and Folders Information sections that present similar information in more detailed, easy-to-grasp formats, such as charts and statistics.

Repair/Recovery:  

Advanced System Optimizer comes with a customizable Registry Cleaner, a Secure Delete Program tool, a spyware detector and is one of few products that repairs zip files.

Registry errors are divided into groups identified with icons and brief descriptions. In Expert Mode, you can double-click any error to go directly to its source.

Before deleting any data, the program requires you to set a system restore point so you can easily restore (or rollback) your machine to its original state if the deletion causes problems. You can also perform a system backup, an Incremental Backup or Mirroring (mirroring makes an exact copy of the source folder).

Optimization:  

Advanced System Optimizer offers every optimization tool we review and is split into seven logical categories: Appearance, Internet and Network, Startup and Shutdown, Hardware, System Security and Other.

These categories contain useful features like the System Analyzer and Advisor, which gives expert advice on how to optimize your computer, a Memory Optimizer,, which helps you free up memory and a Logon Section that lets you customize many aspects of the logon process.

Feature Set:  

Advanced System Optimizer is packed with features, including a Popup Blocker, Organizers (for scheduling appointments and organizing media files), a Privacy Protector (which allows you to erase the movements you make while using your computer), and a Sticky Pad program that helps you organize your life without cluttering up your desk.

Help/Support:  

SysTweak offers exceptional help and support for Advanced System Optimizer with a built-in manual, an online FAQs page and extremely efficient email support.

Summary:  

With the most complete Maintenance/Diagnostic and Repair/Recovery sections we've seen, coupled with easy-to-use controls, Advanced System Optimizer is one of the best PC system utilities software programs around for beginners and experts alike.
